Table do it yourself: we make wooden and folding tables, studying drawings and step-by-step instructions. How to make a desk homemade table from chipboard

A great way to supplement the interior of the house or giving is to make the original and stylish piece of furniture. About how to make the table with your own hands, we speak this article. Such a piece of furniture will be a real decoration of the living room, a kitchen or a working office. It can be collected at home from specially ordered boards and bars or from remnants of materials. For this, the wizard will need drawings, tools and a little fantasy. But the experience of making homemade furniture may be absent. We offer you a very simple project for assembling a strong and sustainable table. Making furniture on this scheme even newcomer.

Everything starts with ideas

How to make the table? It is necessary to start work with the selection of a ready-made furniture project for the living room or with compiling your own scheme of the future product. You can not limit your fantasy, however, it should be remembered that the drawings according to the degree of complexity should correspond to your skill level. In the absence of sufficient experience, it is better not to try to collect a very complicated design itself.

The table for the house can be depicted with a pencil on paper. First, you need to draw the design of the desired form, and only then designate its size. Most often, the table is made with their own hands for the living room square or round, but for the kitchen or the work office (and any small room) is suitable for a compact corner or adjustable table.

The size of the table with their own hands can be absolutely any, when choosing the dimensions of the product, it is recommended to take into account, first of all, the size of the room in which it will stand. Then, using drawings, you can count the amount of material to buy. Acquire materials recommended with a small margin (just in case).

If you are a novice that first collects furniture at home, then you better give preference to soft wood (for example, pine).

Such materials are very compatible and not split during the assembly. If you make the living room furniture and aesthetics are important to you, choose a poplar. If the homemade table is used outside the house, it is recommended to choose a treated wood or a red tree.

Durability will also be distinguished by a wrought table with a wooden countertop. Charm Your yard will add a wood product decorated with wrought-iron elements.

To collect a simple table at home, you will need:

    • edged or tipped boards, a square cross section (for legs) and with a rectangular cross section (for frame);

  • white or yellow wood glue;
  • screws (preferably taking sammes of 4x60);
  • screwdriver;
  • drill;
  • clip set;
  • sandpaper or grinding machine.

We make a countertop right

Work is starting with the description of the process of manufacture of table top. There are several ways with which you can solve this task. What does the choice of this or that way depends? First of all, from the skill of the furniture maker and the intended appearance of the table for a living room or a country house. So, here are the main ways of making homemade countertops:

  1. Production from boards. This material is relatively low cost, excellent appearance and environmental friendliness. If you are a beginner master, you can make a table with your own hands from t-shut-off boards (that is, blanks with crests and grooves.

An experienced master can collect furniture for the living room of their edged boards. To do this, he will need a dowel or primeros small length. They will be used to connect boards with each other.

  1. Making from a single piece of wood. In this case, you can generally do not break your head over how to make a table with your own hands with a sufficiently durable and beautiful countertop. The optimal option is to purchase plywood from hard wood. However, such a product will cost quite expensive.
  2. Assembly of products from remnants of materials. This is a very cheapest way to make furniture for the house, but quite complicated performed. It will be necessary to choose fragments of wood, which will harmoniously combine with each other and do not create problems in the process of installation and further use of the product. Connect the remnants is also not easy. In this case, you will have to use screws and a large amount of glue or create a substole (rigidity edges).

In the first case, the boards lay down on each other, connecting with the help of screws and glue. Because all the boards of different sizes, on the finished product it will be necessary to trim the protruding elements and spend thorough grinding. As a result, it turns out the original and comfortable table.

The second method provides for the fastening of the material residues by any convenient way (with the help of glue, screws), followed by strengthening the structure by means of the installation of the podstoly or rigidity. Such a table will be distinguished by stability and durability.

If the table is located in the yard near the house or in a stylized living room, then you can order for it a wrought-made frame with legs. This will add a product of a special color and identity.

When the countertop is ready, it can be left overnight for the night so that it should be drunk. The technology of manufacturing this part of the table is approximately the same, regardless of the selected shape of the product. The main differences in projects in this case are in the form that you need to give the edges of the boards or a solid sheet of wood.

If you make an original corner table, then the edges of the boards will have to do at an angle. It is very important to correctly calculate degrees of each cut, so that the edges of the product are smooth.

However, if as a result, unevenness was formed, the edges of the table will need to be collected. You can also first bore the boards, and then draw a triangle on the workpiece and cut the finished product.

If you make a round table in a living room or a product with rounded edges, it is recommended to bore the boards of the future product, after which it is on the workpiece to draw a pencil or chalk of the future cuts.

The finished countertop on such a project will look like this:

Frame as a basis for a reliable table

The next step is to make a frame of a table for the living room. The frame is a wooden square (for a square or rectangular table) or a polygon (for a round item), which is fastened with the worktop and ensures the fixation of the legs.

Make a frame for an ordinary table will not be difficult even for beginner. To do this, turn the tabletop to the bottom up, measure the canvas, count several centimeters deep into and make a mark. Then, by marks, you can draw a rectangle or square.

After that, you need to cut off four pieces of wood of such sizes that correspond to the drawings on the table top. For the manufacture of a frame, it is recommended to take a rectangular timber. The frame of the boards may not be durable enough. Then the frame must be attached to the tabletop with the help of glue or screws. The second option provides a higher reliability of the design, but the hats of the screws will be visible on the surface of the table top in this case.

We make durable and reliable legs

At the next stage of the realization of an unusual project, you need to make the feet of the table. You can first cut off one leg of the desired height (for the production of legs it is recommended to use a square sections ram), and then using it as a sample, cut off the remaining 3. If you make an angular table, then the legs will not be 4, and 3. After completing the cutting process, Click all the legs together and cut them off in such a way that they were the same length.

At the next stage of the work, the legs need to be pasted with a grinding machine or sandpaper. But the top and bottom of the products should not be grinding, as you can spoil the correct cutting angle. Then you need to attach the legs. For this, the table can be turned upside down.

The first leg should be put into one of the corners of the frame in such a way that the top slice touch the countertops, and the two sides of the legs were adjacent to the frame. Then the parts of the contact details must be abundantly lubricated with glue and connect using fastening screws that are screwed through the table frame. Holes for the screws are preferably made in advance so that the screws do not split a tree in the process of screwing.

From the use of nails and hammer in the manufacture of a standard or corner table, it is better to abandon how nails can split the wood, and the use of the hammer requires the manufacturer of special skills. In addition, the screws are better holding a tree than nails, and if necessary, they can be turned out of the product.

Be sure to trace the legs attached to the table at the right angle. One of the advantages of screws is that they are easily adjustable. If necessary, their position can be easily changed. Then the same operations should be carried out with the rest of the legs. You can also scout legs through the worktop, but in this case there is a risk of splitting the legs. Yes, and the aesthetics of the table for the living room will suffer from this.

When the glue is completely dry, it is necessary to check the product for stability, strongly loosening it. However, if you made an angular table, then this stage can be skipped. It will come in contact with two walls of the living room or office, and it will give him extra strength. Then it remains only to polish the surface of the finished product and cover it with a varnish for wood or special paint. On this work is completed. Now you can supplement the interior of an apartment or garden with a beautiful product.

The table with your own hands may well be made even a homemade master who does not have any accumulated experience in the joinery craft. Of course, it will be possible if the design of the table will be sufficiently simple and understandable.

For example, find a suitable ready-made table model for a kitchen with overly small dimensions is not always obtained. Purchase to order furniture from the wood array - sufficiently placed. Therefore, it is sometimes necessary to take care of the tools and design your own "work" yourself, pushing out the specific sizes of the place where the table is planned.

In addition, a desire often arises to show their creative abilities in the conditions of giving, especially since there is always a desire to beautifully equip the veranda or a gazebo of a country site. If there are suitable materials and tools at hand, then you can or sit for drawing up the drawing of the future table, or take advantage of the finished project, and then proceed to work.

To understand which of the types of tables under the power to build with your own hands, it is desirable to consider several options for this subject of furniture.

Tools for work

Before starting work, you must prepare the appropriate tools that will be required for the manufacture of any wooden table. The amount of material for each model will be different.


You can use ordinary, traditional hand tools that have always worked carpenters. This list usually includes:

  1. The plans to be aligned with wood and drive items to the desired size.
  2. The chisels for sampling of various holes and grooves, removing small protrusions.
  3. Saws of different sizes and modifications that cut thick boards or make minor drums.
  4. Pencil, roulette, corner and ruler.
  5. Screwdriver Set.
  6. Clamps for temporary fixation of glued parts.
  7. Sanding paper for grinding.

Many of the tools can be replaced by more modern and convenient devices:

  • Electric jigscription will perform all the work for which they used to be used, the various saws mentioned above.


Rating electroballs
  • The grinding machine will help to make the surfaces even and pulses them to the brilliance, will save from the very tedious handling procedure with emery paper.

  • Milling machine with a set of cutters. This device will help rounding sharp corners, drill curly grooves under furniture loops, and if you need a certain experience, you can decorate the table with a relief pattern with it.
  • Significantly accelerates work, as it will have to spend on the twist of each self-proof for a few minutes. In addition, it is possible to install one of the cutters or conventional drills in it with certain operations, for example, in order to process the edge or make a perfectly smooth large or fine hole (groove).
  • The building level will help make the product smooth and neat, as it will show all possible irregularities and skews.

So that the finished furniture does not work out "dashed", the assembly is controlled by the level

Easy in the manufacture of a table for the country area


Make a similar country table - forces to each

Necessary materials

For such a country having a size of a tabletop of 1680 × 850 mm, it will not be necessary for a very large amount of wooden blanks. It is necessary to prepare the following:

  1. Bar, section - 750 × 100 × 50 mm - 4 pcs. (Table legs).
  2. Self-tapping screws, bolts and, possibly, metal corners.
  3. Carpentry glue.
  4. Board, size:
  • 1680 × 100 × 25 mm - 4 pcs. (longitudinal framework elements);
  • 850 × 100 × 25 mm - 2 pcs. (transverse framework parts);
  • 1580 × 100 × 25 mm - 2 pcs. (facing boards for the side elements of the frame);
  • 950 × 100 × 25 mm - 17 pcs. (Boards for the table top).

All wooden elements must be processed by the compositions and have a prepared smooth surface. If it is planned to "darken" wood, then it is covered with a verse, and for the manifestation of the texture pattern - on top neatly passed the grinding machine. Sanding paper with small grain will remove the blurred sublime parts of the wood pattern, and they will become lighter than recess.

Installation of garden table

When all parts for the frame will be prepared, you can go to the assembly.


Frame or "Box"
  • The first step of the work-table framework details are four longitudinal boards of 1680 × 100 × 25 mm and two end 850 × 100 × 25 mm, laid out on the big table or on the floor. On the end boards there is a markup of the location of the internal and exterior boards. Using a ruler, relying on the drawing, the desired distances are measured and the pencil is marked. Be sure to accurately note the width of the longitudinal board at the junction with the end, especially if the connection is to pass in the insertion method.

The connection of the elements can be carried out in different ways:


Connection with the choice of a "quarter" and using metal corners

- with the help of a steel corner - this is the easiest and most reliable way;

- the method of the insert is a more complex way, since it requires exact dimensions not only in the width and length of the connecting elements, but also in the depth of the board;


Several types of connection on the principle of "Ship-Paz"

- "Paz-Schip" shown in the second figure a), b), c), d) and e) such a compound is also quite difficult for beginner masters who do not have experience;

- The connection of the wizards is shown on Fenther E) - this method also requires ideal accuracy when marking and drumming the holes in the parts connected.

  • All compounds are usually carried out with glue. An exception is only fastening the details of the metal corner.
  • The frame must have perfectly verified direct angles, so after connecting all the elements, you need to control the construction of the construction corner and measurement and comparing the length of the diagonals.
  • If the parts are fixed with glue, they must be fixed in clamps and leave it to the complete burden, otherwise they will be connected unreliable.

  • When the glue is driving, and the frame will acquire a certain rigidity, facing boards are fixed to external longitudinal sides of a size of 1580 × 100 × 25 mm. The place of their attachments also need to be placed, since in their edges there should be a distance for the installation of the legs. Facing boards are also placed on glue and fixed with self-drawing, the hats of which should be dried in wood by 1.5 ÷ 2.0 mm.

  • The next step is the transverse case of the countertop boards 950 × 100 × 25 mm. The place of consolidation is also needed to first place, starting from the middle of the frame, as they must be installed at a distance of 5 mm from each other. Table tops over the frame should be 25 mm from all four sides.
  • Further, each of the boards are fixed in four places to the longitudinal elements of the "box" of the table, and the extreme boards are also to the end parties. So that the hats of the screws were recessed, for them in the boards, the recesses with a diameter of 8 mm are drilled into a depth of 2 ÷ 3 mm, then, in the center of these recesses, the drill of a smaller diameter (usually - 3 mm) through holes are dried, in which the self-tapping screws will be screwed. In order to avoid cracking of boards during installation work, through holes must be drilled.

  • After that, on the edges of the longitudinal boards, the legs of a bar with a cross section of 750 × 100 × 50 mm are fixed, they must accurately coincide with the width of the table top.

The next step - the legs are installed
  • The legs can be fixed to the frame by self-drawing, but it is better to fix each of them with two bolts, placing them on the diagonal of the connection site. Through the bolts are drilled through holes, and the twisting of the nuts on them is made from the inside of the frame using the key.
  • The final stage of manufacturing is seeding with screws of self-tapping screws with a mixture made of joinery or epoxy glue and sawdust. This homemade putty fill the deepening over the hats and well smash. After grazeing the glue all the worktop, and especially the places closed by the "plugs" of the glue, you need to polish well.

  • After that, the table can be covered with varnish or water-based paint. Waving to dry the decorating or protective layer, the product can be installed in the country gazebo, on the veranda or terrace in the recreation area.

If desired, the set to the table will be easy to make or bench.

Small folding table for kitchen


Such a small folding table is perfect for a small kitchen or a very small room.

  1. Its design is arranged in such a way that the countertop cannot work independently if the feet of the table will be condemned, so the table is quite safe for installation in the children's room.
  2. The presence of a bilateral spacious bedside table will allow you to store various trifles and small toys.
  3. The table is equipped with a tabletop of sufficient size so that the child, sitting behind him, could perform homework.
  4. In addition, there will be a place for a laptop on the worktop or the books necessary for studying books.
  5. If necessary, this small table can easily be replaced with an ironing board, if you have a soft tissue on its surface.

Given all the above, the table can be called multifunctional, despite the very compact dimensions.

Installation of folding table stands

Start the manufacture of the table stands with the most important and large part of its details - countertops. Since the folding table, this element will consist of two parts - stationary and "mobile", that is, that which can be thrown down if necessary. In the folded state, this table may well perform the role of a conventional compact standby.

IllustrationBrief description of the operation

The first step of plywood with a thickness of 25 mm, using a jigsaw or circular saw, it is necessary to cut the blanks for the table top, the size of 600 × 600 and 600 × 475 mm.

Next, the larger panel is marked - the semicircle is drawn up, since the front of the table should be rounded.
In order to achieve the correct form of the semicircle, you can use a large building circulation, or make it yourself - from the nail, pencil and rope.

Then, according to the noted, the tabletop curly.
This can be done using a jigsaw or circular saw by installing an appropriate zircle nozzle on it.

Further, the milling machine is set to the cutter of the desired configuration, which will make the edges of the table top smooth, optionally - smooth or rounded.

The milling part of the panel is treated with a milling part, leaving a smooth one side that will stick with the second part of the table top.
The edges are then processed.

The next step, the two treated parts of the table top are laid on a flat table at a distance of 5 mm from each other.
Marking is made to install furniture loops. They must be placed at a distance of 100-120 mm from the edge of the table top.
Furniture loops can have a different form, so they should be put on the marked place and circle with a simple pencil.
Then, with the help of a milling mill in the plywood, special curly grooves are arranged, the depth of which should be equal to the thickness of the furniture loops.
In the finished holes of the loops are fixed with the help of self-tapping screws.

After connecting the hinges of two parts of the table, in the middle of the panels, there is a markup from the bottom side to secure parts that form a closed channel for the movement of the moving feet of the table.
Guides must be fixed at a distance of 30 mm from the joint of two parts of the table.
For the manufacture of parts, plywood is 18 mm thick. Then, cut out of it and processed by a mill of 10 elements: 530 × 30 mm in size - 2 pcs., 530 × 20 mm - 2pcs, 120 × 30 mm - 2 pcs., 120 × 30 × 20 mm - 2pc., 122 × 20 mm -1 pcs.
It is important to remember that long rails must have from one edge, and short elements on both sides of the sections of 45˚ so that when docking, they formed a straight angle. In addition, the upper long and short parts fixed on top of the lower rails of the guides are cut from the ends, also at an angle of 45˚. These sections are necessary to ensure that their corners do not interfere with the foot of the legs by the resulting channel.
Then, to the discharged section of the rounded, and then to the rectangular part of the tabletop are glued with carbon glue parts. First, they are fixed on the glue, and then screwed up the longest rails having a size of 530 × 20 mm, then overlaps the channel part 122 × 20 mm.
On top of long and short fixed rivers are pasted by second, having the same length, but large widths are also additionally screwed by self-draws. Thus, a smooth channel forms between the tabletop and the upper rail, along which the leg will move.
It is very important to calculate the location of spouts of screws in so that the upper does not come across those that fix the lower rails.
Similarly, four parts and on the rectangular part of the table top are fixed.
All items should be processed before smoothness and perfectly fixed with each other, otherwise the leg when moving will be stumbled on obstacles and jam.

The leg is usually made on the lathe. If it is not, then it can be ordered to order it at the master or buy in the finished form.
As a last resort, you can make it square, processing the timing of the desired height before smoothness.
Then, on the upper end part of the leg with the help of a duct and glue is fixed exactly in the center, the guide square plate of plywood, having dimensions of 80 × 80 × 18 mm.

Next, after drying the glue, the leg can be installed in the channel intended for it and test for its free movement, without jamming.
If necessary, you can carry out minor fit and refinement.

The finished countertop is painted, or is covered with a water-based varnish - if the goal is set to preserve the factory drawing of plywood.
After that, the finished countertop is laying aside and go to the manufacture of the couch.

Elements of the cabinets do not have complex configurations, so it is enough to make them enough on the MDF panel or a thick phaneer to accurately move the dimensions of the parts specified in the table, and gently cut them out them with a jigsaw or saws.
After the items are made, their end parts must be processed before smoothness by the milling mill, otherwise they will look inactively.

If you plan to leave the visible end parts of the details of the chandeliers with a special laminated edge ribbon, then this process is carried out using a conventional iron.
The tape on the inner side has a layer of glue, which is heated under the influence of heat and ensures reliable fixation of the edge on the surface of the end parts of the MDF panels.

The next step in the door panel of the cabinets you need to make curly grooves in which furniture loops will be fixed and fixed.
The holes are made in the same way as in the tabletop using a millingrer, but in this case the mill can be installed in the screwdriver, since the MDF has a smaller density than glued plywood and is easier to process without material chip.
The loop should be located at a distance of 100 mm from the edges of the door - before the start of drilling you need to spend thorough markup.
A similar procedure is carried out with the wall of the couch to which the door will be fixed.
Then the door of the door is joined among themselves, to check the correctness of the installation and for the holes for the screws for the screws.

In addition to loops, you can immediately fasten the prepared handle.
To do this, retreating the edge of the panel 50 mm and finding a convenient position in height, the point is noted through which the through hole is drilled to fix the handle.

All made parts of the cabinet are painted paint selected color with roller and brush.
The paint will not only make the product aesthetically attractive, but also protects the material from the negative effect of a specific kitchen wet environment.

Next, you can go to the assembly of the bedside tables.
Professionals spend this process using special tools, but they can be completely replaced by appliant devices. For example, you can assemble on a flat table, and for the convenience of installing the cabinets, it is additionally installed on smooth bars.
Mutual fastening of parts can be carried out with the help of wooden drums, metal furniture corners or screws - the last option is the easiest, but also the most unreliable. In addition, hats of self-assembly after assembly will have to mask various compositions.
The assembly process occurs as follows:
- The bottom panel is laid on the stand.
- It is set to it in terms of the level and with the help of a construction corner one of the side panels and its location is marked with a pencil.
- And the same is planned on the horizontal and vertical panel the location of the fastening parts.
- exactly the same procedure is carried out with the second side and separation middle wall.
- Then, on the marked points of the bottom and end sides of the side panels, holes are drilled to install the waders.
- After that, before gluing the parts, the locations are defined on the side walls to install the shelves. Then, in the marked places mounted brackets-shelters for which holes are also drilled.
- Next, in the holes, drilled in the bottom, are mounted glued by glue, the side walls are put on the upper, protruding part.
- the non-removable jumper shelves are mounted in the same way, simultaneously with the side walls.

Before you continue to work, you need to make sure that the glue in the collected design is good.
In order for the cabinet to stood tougher, it is placed on the side and for the breakdown squeezed by clamps.

While driving glue, you can take a drawer assembly.
Since it will be completely assembled from MDF, the installation of the box can also be carried out with the help of a wanking.
The lateral sides are assigned to the bottom part of the box, and the line has a pencil, and then marked seats where the sewage will be installed.
Then, the sidewalls are removed, and on the marked places, the holes are drilled in their end to install fasteners. The same is done on the bottom panel.
Further, the wrenches are missing with glue and gently inserted into the holes, connecting the sidewalls with the bottom.

Bathrooms are twisted with the help of self-tapping screws, the hats of which are recommended to be dried into wood, and the holes should be sealing from epoxy glue and sawdust.
Another fastening option can become furniture corners, which are from the inside are screwed to the sidewalls by self-draws. Each of the sides will take two corners.

Collecting the box, it is necessary to control the evenness of its corners with a construction corner and a change in diagonals, otherwise there may be a skew.

If it is planned to install metal roller guides for a lightweight drawer, then to start on the sidewalls of the boxes and on the inner walls of the cabinet, the place of their attachment is determined.
To do this, with the help of a pencil and ruler, the line is drawn, on which the guides will be enshrined.

Next, the front panel is installed to the front of the box. It is screwed from the inside of the drawer, through pre-placed and drilled holes.
Recommended In addition to the screws for fastening the panel, use the glue: it is applied to the front panel, and then the facade is pressed to it, and they are tightened with four-five screws.
After grazing the glue in the center of the front panel, the hole is drilled through which the handle is screwed.

Finally, the long-awaited moment comes - the connection of the stands and countertops.
The stationary part of the countertop is recommended to first be glued to the surface of the couch, and then fasten it with self-strokes, which are screwed from the inside of the lower cabinets.
But first, the countertop must be right. A part of the channel located on the stationaryly installed tabletop panel must be restarted into the side of the couch - it will serve as a stopper for the movement of the legs towards the table.
The countertop should go beyond the edges of the cutter on the side of the drawer by 50 mm, open shelves by 30 mm, and from the side of the leg - 120 mm.

Securing the tabletop, go to the final installation and screwing on the dormitory of the bedside tables.
Then the retractable box is inserted, and the shelves are installed on the shelves.

In the closed state, the compact table, so it does not take up much space and looks quite aesthetic.
If you wish to decorate it, you can choose other colors that will be better harmony with the interior of a particular room.

Create a unique thing that is ideal in all parameters: shape, size, material and reliability. Following the instructions and recommendations of professionals, you will be sure of your own experience that this furniture product is quite able to make at home.

Today, various building materials are used for the production of tables: metal, glass, plastic, stone, but often the manufacture of furniture is carried out from such a high-quality material like wood. To create a wooden table with their own hands, soft (spruce, pine, cedar, fir), solid (birch, nut, oak, maple, ash) or very solid (DRIZIL, TIS) of wood, having good resistance to rotting and mechanical influences.

Walnuts are most valuable for furniture for furniture - it combines high hardness and excellent viscosity. If you are a newcomer in the joinery craft, it is recommended to give preference to furniture from pine, birch and oak. Having decided to make a pine original table with their own hands, you can use cheap drowned boards, but there should be no drop-down swirls, cracks, stains and traces of rot.

Before you begin the analysis of specific moments and recommendations that will help make the table with your own hands, it is important to determine the design of the desired product. Due to the wonderful combination of naturalness and environmentalities of wood with a country concept, a homemade wooden table will become an excellent option for the garden.

It is noteworthy that by the complexity of the work of the work, this piece of furniture for most masters is practically like homemade from a tree, since the homemade table is going very easily. This fascinating process resembles a designer assembly.

The table is the second after the top item, which should be able to be able to every novice fans-furniture. The table can be created from different materials and have unique characteristics. An excellent intention for you will be a desire to make your product from wood.

The table from the tree is sufficiently easily created by itself, there are enough possession of minimal skills in working with a joinery tool. And the cost of material will be significantly less than on the table using metal, glass or plastics.

And the most important thing is that when creating a table, it is most importantly important skills of working with the material, which will make the restoration of operational defects much easier.

What can make a good table

A particularly beautiful countertop can be made from cheap non-varietal pine boards, drowned and swivel (without drop-down bumps, rot, fungus, wormochin), which, with good processing, give a wonderful pattern, to achieve which when working with expensive trees it is necessary to make much greater costs and efforts. .

When the material is selected, it is important to take care of the strength of the future product. To do this, pay attention to the density of wood.

Soft (spruce, pine, chestnut, dogwood) is easily damaged during operation, which adversely affects the durability of the table. But scratches and dents can be hidden, although the restoration process is quite frequent.

Solid rocks (beech, ash, marsh, oak, nut, fruit breed, elm) It is quite difficult to handle yourself. And you may have to look for masters for working with them. But ensure the product durability.

External characteristics

It is very important to determine in advance for yourself the appearance of your future product. The main rule of good table is considered if the design fits well into the space allotted for it and leaves for a lot of free space for sitting.

It is also important to take into account that the table with a rectangular table top will contain less people than a table with a round or oval shape with the same area. A table for guests will be more appropriate to perform in a folding version, which is unfolded for large holidays, and in the daily life is folded. Also, such a folding table will be convenient in the subsidiary farm.

Most often need to choose a kitchen table. It should be roomy and delight eyes, to facilitate the work process. But should not interfere with movements in the room and in no way interfere with the process of culinary creativity.

Based on this, it is absolutely clear that the size of the table is selected depending on the area of \u200b\u200bthe room. Also for the kitchen table it is impossible to use soft woods due to its use in "extreme" conditions.

The choice of external characteristics of the product is a responsible process, so before the start of the proprietary formation of the table for giving, it is imperative to thoughtfully assess the needs for which this table is being done.

Practice on paper

When creating a design that is the fruit of your imagination, you will have to develop a scheme and drawings of your desk personally. For which there is a huge set of electronic programs.

After a thorough development process, it is imperative to transfer the result on paper. For quick and high-quality work it is very important to use this manual constantly.

Creative process

Preparing the drawings is the last preparatory stage. Next, you can proceed to the most important part of the work - the manufacture of details. Wooden tables with their own hands are created much easier if the drawings and schemes are as informative as possible. This reduces the likelihood of errors to minimize.

You can actually personally, you can both a desk and a coffee or a children's option. With a certain skill, it is actually created and a computer desk. As well as a dining or dacha model. Each option is slightly easy to perform.

The canteen for tabletops and boards with bars, from which the remaining parts will be formed, are processed in the presence of the tool or, at worst, coarse sandpaper to remove the defects present in the form of irregularities and protruding knots.

The boards are grouped from all sides, including side faces and corners. If you create a canvas from the spikes of a tree, you need to make sure that they are sufficing sufficient, as well as close small cracks found after visual inspection. And better to splash them. To get a more reliable clutch of the canvas and save time on the element assembly.

Shift to the finished canvas. The main elements are cut out with an electrolovka and, if necessary, cuts are grouped. The protruding reference elements are trimmed by about 3 centimeters. From both sides of the supports (legs) horizontal outlines.

The billets are covered with a drug that prevents moisture and pests from entering, and only after the final drying is allowed to resume the process of its own design of the table.

We collect details together

After the manufacture of all necessary parts can be proceeded with the priesthood. Namely, collect the desired masterpiece together. And it can be both a round table and any other selected product.

First, it is necessary to collect a supporting structure with screws and glue (at first the drill is drilled thin channels on the short-circuit length, otherwise there is a possibility of splitting the part). Galvanized screws can be used for the compound, as they do not rust, and for wood products it is very important. Either joinery glue.

According to the basic rules, the frame for length and width must be less than a tabletop by 30-25 cm.

From the sides you need to attach additional boards to give rigging and to hide the place of attachment of the legs. Cut the chamfer in places setting the legs.

Then the leg of the table is attached on its place with clamps, and the holes for bolts are drilled in the frame. Install the support elements in your own seats and fix them with staps. Strengthen the design with joinery glue. Then install the worktop to the place for what are used furniture corners. At the very end, all visible screws are hidden by plugs under the color of wood.

The final stage. Finish

The photo of the completed table can be seen below. Achieve this result is surprisingly simple. Optionally, you can round or only the angles, or completely the end, depending on the type of table. It will be beautiful on the ribs countertops to make chamfer.

In the entire design, irregularities are grouped, with the help of a putty, the mistakes are hidden. To extend the service life of the personally assembled table, it is necessary to cover it with several layers of varnish or veil.

Thus, it's owning a beautiful tree table of a fairly simple lesson for leisure. And easily executed. The guarantee of extracting a good, ideal in dimensions and aesthetic result in its drawings is: accurate following the management, error-free execution and weighted selected material. And the resulting table will harmoniously fit into the exterior.

And you can make it you can do it, spending quite a bit of time. In some cases, you may need an assistant, sometimes an extra pair of hands does not hurt.

This article is a detailed step-by-step instruction managing a wooden table for giving.

Materials:

  • A - legs: bars 5 × 10 cm long 106 cm long (2 pcs.), 43 cm long (2 pcs.) And 56 cm long (2 pcs.);
  • B - frame: Bruks of 5 × 10 cm long 87 cm (2 pcs.);
  • C - Countertop: 5 × 15 cm boards 180 cm long (6 pcs.);
  • D - base-top base: 5 × 15 cm boards with a length of 87 cm (2 pcs.), Bruks of 5 × 10 cm 62 cm long (2 pcs.).

The first stage of the project is the manufacture of legs of the table. Screw the bars of the required sizes. To speed up the process, you can use the circular saw. Combine the edges of the bars and the line dug out the emery paper.

Connect the bars so that it turns out a X-shaped design, and secure them with 60 mm self-stakes, without forgetting to pre-drill the guide holes. Jump places to smear glue. Make sure that there are no cracks and gaps.

Make each pair of legs with horizontal bar, using 60 mm screws for this purpose. Ends of bars cut, as shown in the picture.

Put the boards designed for the manufacture of table tops, on a flat surface. We advise you to put a piece of 6 mm plywood between them, it will make it possible to form uniform gaps. Place the tabletops collected the sidewalls of the table and secure them by screwing them at an angle of 90 mm. Before fixing, make sure the perpendicularity of the legs and the countertops using the alcohol level for this.

Place a 5 × 15 cm of boards on the bottom side of the table top and fix them with 60 mm screws.

Screw the ends of the bars, which will perform the function of reinforcing the design of the backups, at an angle of 45º. Install the backups in their place and fix with the help of 90 mm screws screwed at an angle.

And finally, the last but no less important thing is: check if there are no screws of self-tapping screws over a wooden surface, and all the gaps and holes fill in a putty on the wood.

Tip: To protect the wooden surfaces from the destructive impact of atmospheric moisture, cover them with several layers of paint for outdoor use or simulation.

Table with benches. Instructions with drawings

Materials:

  • A - legs: Bars 5 × 10 cm long 95 cm (4 pcs.);
  • B - crossbars: bars 5 × 10 cm long 160 cm long (2 pcs.);
  • C - Mounting Countertops: Bars 5 × 10 cm Length 75 cm (5 pcs.);
  • D - inclined backups: Bars 5 × 10 cm long 84 cm (2 pcs.);
  • E - Countertop: 5 × 10 cm boards Length 180 cm (14 pcs.).

Start work stands with the manufacture of legs. Since this table feet will be located obliquely, the ends of the bars with a length of 100 cm should be cut off at an angle of 30º. Connect the elements of 90 mm bolts.

Make sure the surface on which you work is quite smooth. The mounted table sidewings should be identical, only in this case can be hoped for a great end result.

When the sidewalls of the table will be ready, you can start making a wooden countertop. We recommend that you put it on the ground (floor), and then fixing the legs with the help of screws.

Tip: Do not forget to make sure the vertical of the side walls of the table with an alcohol level, otherwise the final result of your work is hardly satisfied.

Rigidly fix the entire design using inclined backups. Their ends should be cut at an angle of 26º.

Now it remains only to build benches. Displays the boards of the desired size, place them on both sides of the table and, after drilling several guide holes at a distance of at least 1 cm from the edges, fasten with the help of screws.

Tip: In order for the seating boards to be distributed evenly, placing the carnations between them or pieces of plywood between them. Thanks to this little trick, all the gaps will be the same.

At the end of the work, pay attention to small but very important strokes. Fill the wood putty all the gaps and holes. After drying the putty, polish the wooden surfaces of the sandy paper of medium grain.

Tip: Do not forget to apply several layers of paint or veil to protect the wooden surfaces from exposure to water and sunlight.

Round table. We do in the country on your own

Materials:

  • A - base: 5 × 10 cm bar 102.5 cm long (1 pcs.) And 47 cm long (2 pcs.), Bruks 2.5 × 10 cm. 9 cm long (4 pcs.);
  • B - Racks: Bars 10 × 10 cm Length 60 cm (4 pcs.);

  • D - Countertop: 2.5 × 15 cm boards Long 195 cm (9 pcs.).

The first stage of the project is to create the base of the table. To articate the components of its elements, use waterproof glue and screws. Make sure the angles formed by the brushes connected, direct. To protect the collected base of the table from rotting under the influence of rainwater, place it on small stands from cropping 2.5 × 10 cm of the board.

Now you need to attach to the base four racks made from squares of square cross section. Before fixing, make sure that they are vertical using alcohol. The height of the legs may differ from the proposed by us, in this case you should, first of all, focus on your own needs.

The most difficult stage of the project is the manufacture of table tops. Place boards on a flat surface and check the center of the square. Secure at this point one end of 60 cm rail. Rotating the second end of the rail, mark the outline of the circle. Lobzik with a sharp blade will allow you to make a circular cut at a high professional level.

After cutting the boards of the future countertops, we recommend that you make them with a waterproof glue and additionally fix with several clamps. Attach the bars serving the base table top, as shown in the figure (yellow elements must be made of 5 × 10 cm of bars, green - from 2.5 × 10 cm of bars).

Tip: For attaching bars to the table top, use waterproof glue and galvanized screws (30 mm screws for mounting 2.5 × 10 cm of bars and 50 mm for fastening 5 × 10 cm of bars).

After the glue dries, you must attach the legs to the base with a feet with 90 mm of self-tapping screws, drill pre-guide holes. Control by alcohol level perpendicularity of legs and countertops.

In order for the result of your work to fit a high professional level, make sure that the hats of the screws are recessed deep enough. Look all the gaps and holes with a putty on a tree, after drying it to seet the surface with sandpaper.

Tip: Apply a few layers of paint for outdoor work or verses to protect the table from destruction under the influence of moisture. So that the bases of the base also turned out to be intact water, place the table on the concrete surface and their hermetically inlate them.
